You say it's ded beyond salvation?

2019-01-02 06:55:49 UTC  

It's a coworkers tablet, he tried to install Linux on it for some reason

2019-01-02 06:56:51 UTC  

no. i mean riperoni as rip ur life

2019-01-02 06:57:25 UTC  

no other way than to power cycle that bih

2019-01-02 07:41:53 UTC  

Maybe letting the battery discharge to 0 will trigger a reset and there's no actual cmos battery inside

2019-01-02 07:42:21 UTC  

But that's going to take a long time to get done

2019-01-02 07:43:27 UTC  

just hook up usb powered device

2019-01-02 07:46:34 UTC  

Great idea, just did that, seems like USB power is working

Lmao the tablet has a security mechanism

2019-01-02 12:11:03 UTC  

When battery reaches 5 %, it won't boot anymore

2019-01-02 12:11:15 UTC  

Probably to prevent a CMOS reset

2019-01-02 12:26:54 UTC  

that's the battery protection probably

2019-01-02 12:28:12 UTC  

That means that if I deep uncharge it, I risk fucking the battery because the system tries to prevent me from doing it

2019-01-02 12:28:43 UTC  

Locked down tablets hurray

2019-01-02 12:42:02 UTC  

you probably just need to remove the screen

2019-01-02 12:45:35 UTC  

It's not that easy, it's an aluminum frame with a few bolts and no screws

2019-01-02 12:45:59 UTC  

I could probably bent it open

2019-01-02 12:46:00 UTC  

Dremel

2019-01-02 12:46:15 UTC  

lmao that's drastic

2019-01-02 12:46:27 UTC  

But fun

2019-01-02 12:46:30 UTC  

I'll just tell him to toss the tablet if that doesn't work, I'm helping out of friendlyness

2019-01-02 12:48:05 UTC  

@porco what model is tablet

2019-01-02 12:48:50 UTC  

You could see if it can be forced via usb-tools

2019-01-02 12:48:54 UTC  

It's some dell with x86 bay trail cpu, not sure about the exact model

2019-01-02 12:49:07 UTC  

Lemme see

2019-01-02 12:49:16 UTC  

There are a few that look like that

2019-01-02 12:49:44 UTC  

Looks like it could be a dell venue something

2019-01-02 12:50:03 UTC  

I can't verify unless I reset the bios

2019-01-02 12:50:04 UTC  

Venue probly if its gaytrail

2019-01-02 12:51:37 UTC  

Can power-vol down make it into flash ?

2019-01-02 12:51:46 UTC  

I've put it between two books so that the power button gets constant pressure so that it turns on the screen to show the battery warning every few seconds

2019-01-02 12:51:52 UTC  

I'll go for deep discharge

2019-01-02 12:52:02 UTC  

No I tried everything like that

2019-01-02 12:52:15 UTC  

It does go into flash but I don't see the screen and it doesn't take any input
